Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted July 20, 2003 DC Comics.com is doing a contest to guess Hush's identity they offer choices, therefore Hush MUST be one of the following people: 1. Alfred Pennyworth: Doubt it. 2. Barbara Gordon: That would be great if it didn't screw over Birds of Prey. Which I hate, but happens to make money.) 3. Batman: Huh? 4. Bruce Wayne: What? 5. Catwoman: Again, this would screw over Catwoman's ongoing book. 6. Clayface: This would be fine, if a little pedestrian. 7. Harvey Dent: Doubt it. What's the point of him turning face to turn heel right away again? 8. Hugo Strange: The best canidate in my opinion. I hope it turns out to be him. 9. Lex Luthor: Isn't he a bit busy running the free world to destroy Batman? 10. Jason Todd: GOD NO! 11. Jim Gordon: Interesting, but I don't think Gordon is physically capable of doing what Hush has done. Then again, when has logic ever stopped Loeb? 12. Killer Croc: C'mon. Croc's a retard. 13. Martian Manhunter: Get off my porch. 14. Nightwing: Nightwing is too loyal to Bruce, plus it would fuck up his own title. 15. Thomas Wayne: NO! NO! NO! NO! 16. Superman: Supes ain't turning heel. 17. The Joker: Why would Hush frame himself for murder? 18. The Penguin: A logical choice. Could be. 19. The Riddler: Good choice. I hope it's him. 20. The Roman: No thanks. 21. Tommy Elliot: ... I guess it could be. 22. Two-Face: What? I thought Two face was done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest WrestlingDeacon Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Where's Hank Hall in this poll? I forget, but isn't he Hawk/Monarch? And Extant And I'm pretty sure the JSA killed him. Hush is Aunt Harriet. It's pretty obvious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Steviekick Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I'm feeling it's Tommy for some strange reason. That was my first guess, and I still think so ... maybe he faked his death Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Crucifixio Jones Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Tommy isn't HUSH. I get the feeling he was thrown in as the proverbial red herring. All signs point to it being him so therefore it's not. Besides, how easy to figure out would that be? That'd be the ultimate let down and most anti-climatic revelation this side of the Higher Power. Personally, before I even saw these choices I always thought Jason Todd. *ducks and dodges thrown tomatoes* I think this is just the sort of stunt that this book at this point would pull and it would garner TONS of publicity. Having it turn out to be an already established villain would be a letdown unless they have a REALLY good explanation and I don't think they do. Jason Todd would fit perfectly with the all-flash, ZERO-substance story Loeb has provided us with thus far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zorin Industries 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I would love it to be Carmine Falcone personnelly, although I know it wouldn't really work, and be pretty dumb. But i've always loved the fucking Roman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I'm feeling it's Tommy for some strange reason. That was my first guess, and I still think so ... maybe he faked his death Or maybe he used that Lazerus Pit that Ra's was talking about? Same could be said of The Roman, or Jason Todd.

Guest Vyce Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Jason Todd.... I'm going to be pissed if it's him, though. Hugo seems the only truly sensible selection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JMA Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I'm leaning towards Hugo Strange or Jason Todd. Or maybe both. Who knows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Notorious CRD Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Jason Todd seems an obvious choice to me too. For a while I thought it might be Harvey, but now I'm not really leaning that way. Anyway, what leads me to think that it might be Jason is the scene where Ra's reveals the fate of a particular Lazarus Pit to Bats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Lazarus pit definitely helps make it either TOmmy, the Roman, or Jason. I still am feeling Tommy since they did all that flashbacks that built up there relationship.

Zorin Industries 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2003 I'm starting to think, maybe it IS the Roman. After all there is a connection to Harvey Dent, but who would bring his body to the Lazarus pit, and how would he discover Batmans identity? Spoiler (Highlight to Read): I know he has one son left alive who might be able to get his body to the pit (can't remember the name off hand) and his body was seen incased in ice at the end of Dark Victory, so it would be in a decent state of repair. Possible, but not the most likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zorin Industries 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2003 Hmm, but I don't see Alberto wanting to take down Batman, yes Batman caught him, but he didn't kill him, Alberto was a shell of himself in Dark Victory, i just don't see it as Alberto. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know it won't be Alberto it can only be someone on this list. DC offered a contest and these were the options. It won't be anyone but the people on this list.

Zorin Industries 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2003 Oh yes, i know, what i meant was, if it could be anyone Alberto dosen't have the best motive. But I could see Falcone blaming Batman for the destruction of his empire and in an indirect way for his death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Prototype450 Report post Posted July 24, 2003 IT's Jason Todd, he must get his revenge on Batman for the Joker beating the crap out him and leaving him to be killed in that explosion.... *knocks back flying tomato's with a bat* BTW, I'm kidding.

Zorin Industries 0 Report post Posted July 24, 2003 Here's a thought, what if hush is TWO people? Say it's one of the people on that list, but they have also brought another Bat charcetr back from the dead, hence explaning the Lazarus pit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HellSpawn Report post Posted July 24, 2003 I guess that "Hush is 2 people" is better... down here we got the same discussion... anyone of the dead people... CANT Be hush, because.. 1st, they need someone else to bring them back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
